Chapter 465: Restaurant Business
Xu Wanzhen smiled lightly and said: "This chrysanthemum tea is mainly made of honeysuckle, dried lily, fetal chrysanthemum, and fat sea, and is made with a few coins of bergamot, licorice, and mint, which has the effect of clearing heat and nourishing the lungs, moistening the throat and opening the sound." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Brother is busy outside, so it's good to soak a pot and put it in the carriage to moisten your throat. ”
"My sister has really grown up and knows how to care about people. Xu Wenmin sighed.
Putting down the cup, Xu Wenmin said: "Since Mr. Ning has such research in health preservation, and he has the idea of opening a medicine restaurant for his sister, it is better to write and ask." If she is interested, these herbal tea recipes will be counted as dry stocks, what does the girl think?"
Xu Wanzhen's eyes lit up, Brother deserves to be a master of business, and he came up with such a good idea in just half a cup of tea.
In the Gaomang Dynasty, green tea was the main type of tea used to receive people.
There are Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoot tea, Huoshan yellow buds, Fangshan dew buds specially for the royal family, Yixing Yangxian tea, Hangzhou Yuqian Longjing, Suzhou Biluochun, Mengding stone flower, Lu'an melon slices, etc., which are more popular, and there are more popular Changming tea, Tuanhuang tea, Hengshan tea, Yiling tea, Ziyang tea, etc., a total of more than 50 kinds.
The fully fermented black tea, semi-fermented oolong tea, and post-fermented Pu'er tea, which were widely spread in later generations, had not yet come out at this time.
In the tea ceremony, Xu Wanzhen is not proficient, nor has she thought about finding these tea leaves that have not yet been released, and using them as the main business of the Xu family.
The Xu family is mainly engaged in silk, and the interlacing is like a mountain. She is neither a business wizard, nor is she in the place where tea is produced at the moment, and she does not occupy any of them. How difficult it is to start a business from scratch.
But the herbal tea in front of me is different, with Mr. Ning's name, and it is sold in his own restaurant, which is indeed a good idea.
She nodded and said excitedly: "This method is good, I'll go and write a letter to Mr. Ning." ”
"If Mr. Ning agrees, he will give her 20% of the dry shares. The little uncle is a doctor who sits in the hall, and he also has the medicinal diet recipe of the restaurant, and he takes forty percent. Xu Wenmin readjusted the distribution method he had thought of in the past few days.
"The money for opening the store in the early stage came from the Xu family, and I was responsible for the operation, and the Xu family took 20%. The remaining two percent are the sister's. ”
"No, I just came up with an idea, how can I get as much as 20%? Xu Wanzhen shook her head.
Xu Wenmin smiled: "This is also what grandmother meant." The sister is about to get married, and if the restaurant is well run, these two achievements are the sister's marriage. What's the matter?"
Speaking of marriage, Xu Wanzhen blushed, but still insisted: "That's not good." Otherwise, the money advanced in front of the family will be listed separately and counted as the capital. If the restaurant makes money in the back, it will be repaid in three years, and the rest will be dividends. ”
"Rest assured, the family is not short of money. The money in the house has not been touched by the two families. ”
"This silver was obtained from the sale of Jiangnan industry, and it was my grandfather's lifelong effort. How can we be juniors at will?" Xu Wan really said.
Xu Wenmin was moved and said, "Okay, then it's up to the sister." ”
After deciding this, Xu Wenmin took his leave.
Now Xu Changzong is the chief bookkeeper in the brocade workshop, although he has a position, but he can't take care of his family's business. Coupled with the fact that he fell into rheumatism in prison, Xu Wenmin couldn't bear to let his father work anymore.
Therefore, the Xu family's large and small businesses all fell on Xu Wenmin.
There is a shopkeeper Yu in the splendid workshop, and he can share a lot. But the newly opened silk fan, silk flower workshop, garment workshop, and this brewing medicine and food workshop, all the big and small things fell on his shoulders.
If it weren't for the Queen Mother's decree today, Xu Wenmin would not be at home.
Seeing Xu Wenmin away, Xu Wanzhen returned to the room and wrote to Mr. Ning again.
Mr. Ning has an indifferent temperament and is not good at business. Herbal tea is just her own way of health, and if this restaurant can be opened, she will also have an additional source of income. Her son is fourteen years old, and in two years he will start talking about marriage, which is the time to spend money.
She was exiled to this era, and in a sense, she was also burdened by herself.
Two strangers from time and space, why not huddle together for warmth?
After writing the letter and waiting for the ink to dry, Xu Wanzhen carefully sealed it, and handed it over to Cai Si along with the one for Tu Fangyan, and asked her to arrange for someone to deliver it.
After arranging these, Xu Wanzhen invited Mama Zheng to the room, handed over some of the scattered silver to her, and asked her to distribute the reward to the people in the courtyard according to her rank.
Mama Zheng is a good citizen, and she is a nurturing grandmother specially hired for her by Mrs. Xu, and among the people in this courtyard, she has the highest seniority.
Xu Wanzhen had already thought about marrying the Zhongguo Mansion to bring her over as a dowry grandmother. To let her distribute the bounty is to establish her prestige.
……
After He Jin left, the guard of honor at the door also retreated.
Because he knew that Yi was coming, Xu Changzong deliberately took leave and waited at home. But this period of time was the busiest time in the brocade workshop, so he sent away the angel and hurriedly went to the office.
The neighbors living in Jiashan Fang are all wealthy businessmen, but it is also a good idea to get a reward for nothing. The children chattered in front of Xu's house to say goodbye, and the noise dispersed for a while.
Mrs. Xu returned to Ronghui Hall, and said that people were in good spirits on happy occasions, and she looked like she was a few years younger than she was in plain office, and even walked more energetically than usual.
"This is a great event for our Xu family, which is worth celebrating. Mrs. Xu couldn't look up and said, "Biluo, you go and count it." The steward and the steward's daughter-in-law were rewarded with a pair of gold nudes, the first-class maid and the little maid were rewarded with a pair of silver nudes, the second-class was rewarded with 500 large coins, and the little maid, the rough envoy's mother-in-law, and the shopkeeper were each rewarded with 200 large coins. Let those who are on errand in the house come to receive it in this courtyard, and those who are on duty in the shop on a rotating day will come tomorrow to receive it. ”
Biluo wrote them down one by one and asked, "Did the maid go to the eldest lady to get the right cards?"
Xu Wanzhen is in charge of the house and manages the daily expenses of money.
"No, just go out of my account. Old Madam Xu said happily: "Yulu, you also go to help, there is Qinglan waiting here." ”
After a while, there were twenty or thirty people standing in the courtyard, except for Tian Xing, who was the gatekeeper, all of them were here.
"Most of you are old people who came from Suzhou with me. Mrs. Xu said: "I have worked diligently for the Xu family for most of my life, and my old body will not treat you badly." Today's situation, you have all witnessed with your own eyes, and the future days of the Xu family will get better and better!"
Everyone stood in a proper manner, with irrepressible joy on their faces.
Most of them are the sons of the Xu family, and some of them have recently signed a deed of sale and bought them in. The Lord's house is prosperous, and it is not bad for them.
